- The world of computing started as open source
- Closed source only came around when companies started earning money and wanted to guard secrets. Of course profit is what drives capitalism but there are places where open source is of a greater benefit to society and technology. Open source used wisely can also create profit although it is more challenging when you don't have "secrete ingredients."
